Teachers are reviewing the handbook with students this week, but we ask that you familiarize yourself with the rules, policies, and procedures of Central!!!

Our students recently took the ATLAS Interim assessments, and they showed remarkable growth. We are so proud of all of our students. Summative testing will start in just a few weeks, and we cannot wait to see how well our students perform!

Albemarle Foundation Donates 50 Science Kits to Central Elementary School The Albemarle Foundation recently donated 50 hands-on science kits to Central Elementary School, providing an exciting new resource for students to explore the wonders of science. Kimberly Jones (left) and Kodi Bane (right) presented the kits to Rachel Allhands, the school’s Math/Science Facilitator, alongside four enthusiastic fifth-grade students. Also present for the occasion was Sonya Russell, the district's Math/Science Coordinator. The hands-on kits, designed to engage young learners in practical science activities, will be a valuable tool for fostering curiosity and scientific inquiry among Central Elementary’s students.

ATTENTION PARENTS & STUDENTS A new district-wide cell phone policy takes effect THIS school year. No student shall possess on his/her person any cell phone, smartwatch, or similar electronic communication device, camera, MP3 player, iPod, or other portable music device during school hours. A telephone/electronic communication device found in the possession of a student during the school day will be seized by school personnel and returned only to the parent/guardian according to campus policy. Repeated offenses could result in disciplinary actions or confiscation of the device for the remainder of the school year. ** Students who have an electronic device may choose to leave it in their cars or have it in their backpack. If the device is left in the student's backpack it must be on silent or turned off during school hours.**
